Kevin Magnussen is set to miss practice and sprint qualifying at the Brazilian Grand Prix through illness with Ollie Bearman taking over – likely for the sprint race too
Haas Formula 1 driver Kevin Magnussen will skip the Friday track action at the Brazilian Grand Prix due to an undisclosed illness. Ollie Bearman will replace Magnussen in the Haas VF-24 for this weekend. The FIA stewards have granted a request for Bearman to stand in for Magnussen indefinitely. Bearman will run in the practice session and qualify for the sprint race. Haas wishes Magnussen a quick recovery and will provide updates as necessary. Bearman stood in for Magnussen earlier this season in Baku and for Ferrari in Jeddah. Ferrari still needs one more rookie FP1 outing this season, which Bearman can’t fulfill if he starts an extra race.
